Alignment done. Touge is a nice place. Paid $120 for my specs I wanted

Hey Ni55anPat. Would you say Touge would also be a good place to have tires mounted on higher end rims? Looking for a shop where I won't need to watch like a hawk to make sure they don't scratch the wheels when mounting tires.

I don't see why not. They have high qualify wheels at the shop.

$25 mount and balance.

Seemed good. Kinda had confusion with the tech because he said I need toe arms. I'm like we don't have toe arms, we have toe bolts. (I made the holes bigger as well)

Besides that it went good

You can have toe arms only if you get true coilovers in the rear and delete the spring perch..spl has them.

You could get an SPL midlink that has the cup built in, but it's $800

Cool. Thanks for the feedback. I am going to swing by and check them out. Right now I am fighting with Bridgestone and a dealer to find my Pole Position tires for the rear that "got lost in shipping."

How the hell does one lose big azz tires? ha ha.
